Young Tiffany's remarkable marriage
is still the talk in Gotham, the minister
who conducted the ceremony, of course,
emphatically denies that the young man
was intoxicated at the time he was mar
ried, and in confederation of this, points
to the fact that he afterward continued
in the wife's company for over week,
endeavoring to have her recognized by
his family. It was only when he found
himself cut off from all financial support
by bis father, and face to face with actual
physical want that he gave up the fight
and accepted the only alternative that
his family offered him; that of deserving
the woman and fleeing to Europe. He
will remain in Europe under the care OF
the companion who was sent for few
years, or until he can obtain q divorce.
It is expected that this will be an easy
matter, for the young woman, left penni-
less, will soon be forced to some com
promise.

Attacked by an Eagle.

Prof. w. F. Carr and Samuel Chute,
who were surveying on Nicolt avenue,
near the Washburn Home, Minneapolis,
were attacked Monday afternoon by a
large eagle. The bird dropped down
like bullet, and, knocking Chute's cap
from his head, assaulted him with great
fury. The man caught up crowbar,
and for few minutes defended himself
in an UNEQUAL combat, calling Justify for
his companion. Prof Carr coming up,
the savage bird turned upon him, caught
him by the leg, threw him down, tore his
trousers, and, sinking his talons in the
f1eshy part of his leg, inflicted q serious
wound. The bird then mounted the
collar of the unfortunate man aud seemed
determined to bear him away bodily. but
just at this crisis other men came up,
and by their united efforts the bird Of
liberty was finally conquered and secure
ly pinioned. It was found that his wings
8 feet 10 inches from tip to
Tip, and his talons were over four inches
long.

A Painful Spectacle

A Painful Spectacle
St James Gazette.
An omnibus progressing through the
streets Of London with q police consta-
BILE suspended from its pole must Be q
painful spectacle. Such an incident 90
CURED the other day in the city, and
full particulars OF the distressing affair
were given at the city summons court
yesterday, before which tribunal tine
driver Of the omnibus wss summoned to
answer charge Of driving his horses
and omnibus to the common danger Of
the public. According to the evidence
Of the constable he was on duty in New
Broad street on the 18th ult., when he
suddenly found himself suspended on
the pole Of the omnibus by his overcoat.
The pole had ''gone right into his coat
pocket and lifted him of his feet" he
was carted along in that position for
some little distance, when happily the
tail Of his coat gave way and he fell
into the footwsy. This remarkable
statement was oorroborated by several
Witnesses, but the presiding alderman,
after careful investigation Of the cir
cumstances, came to the conclusion that
there was no proof of ''wanton driving"
and that the occurrence was the result
of pure accident. The summons was
therefore dismissed. It is to be hoped
that casualties of this nature will not
frequently take place, as they are calcu-
lated to lower the dignity Of the law in
the eyes of the populace. 1t cannot
however, be denied that the suspension
Of constables to the poles of omnibuses
might, if properly managed, tend to the
prevention of street accidents, and the
better regulation OF street traffic gener
ally.

"Don't you know your own babyf'
This question was put to a man about
25 years old in an up town photograph
gallery the other day. "Well, Tn sup
posed to, but 6-months-old babies look
so much alike, and this is our first. I'm
free to confess that I'm not positive
about that being my baby's picture
The photograph was cabinet size, and
the photographer was very much sur
prised that the paternal parent could not
recognize it. "It's a perfect picture of
the original, whether it's your child or
not" remarked the artist. 20 yes, I'll
admit it's good picture, but what I'm
in doubt about is whether it's mine.
Haven't you got the negative with the
name or number on, to make surei III

and found to correspond with the entry
in the book: "Mrs.-, hah-dozen cab

the pictures and left the studio.

Ancient Perfumes,

Two ancient Egyptian perfumes have
been reconstructed through the researches
of young French professor at Lyons,
who has devoted himself to studying
Egyptian sculpture and the plantsof the
Nile valley. BY hunting through the
papyrus texts and the inscriptions on the
walls of the temple lsvatories he has
found the receipts for the manufacture
OF ''tasi" and ''kyphi." The former was
temple perfume, used to annoint the
statue Of the Egyptian Venus. "Kyphi"
was more important, and besides being
used at home for the rites OF Isis and
Scraps, was imported into Greece and
Rome after the conquest Of Egypt. Il
then became the favorite perfume among
the luxurious Greeks and Romans, who
were amounted with '.kyph" after the
birth, and were sprinkled with the essence
during the grand bsnquets, while some
times it was used to perfume the vine.

The Pawn Shops,


How the pawn-shops are filing up
this jolly weather! Stand before any one
of them and see how like the maws of
wolves they fatten on mans misfortunes.
There in one corner hangs little string
of amber beads. They clasped q baby's
fat little throat once, but the baby
grew cold and hungry for something
better than crusts, and away she few to
heaven. Don't you believe it hurt the
mother to bring these beads and pawn
Them for money to buy basket of coal
And there is pretty guitar tied with a
faded ribbon. What are the white fin
gers doing now, I wonder, that once
picked out dainty tunes from these
strings; and where sounds the voice to-
night that filled the pretty home parlor
with its melody in those departed days
before hard times came knocking at the
door, Before the window stands blue
and shivering wretch, and in his hand he
holds--what? bit of looking glass,
framed in antique silver. No wonder he
doesn't care to keep mirror to reflect
such wan and wasted features. The
eyes that would look back at him from
its depths are not the eyes that were
lifted from Ills crib long years ago to
meet mothers morning kiss. Away
with the useless thing, thenl It will
bring enough to purchase hot teddy
and forgetfulness surely.
